Fair warning - I am only as techie as I need to be in order to get the job done.

I am not able to use the metadata editor box to add new categories. When I click on the 'Add Basic' or 'Add Role' button on the right nothing happens. I am able to open the OPF file.

Any ideas? I do have the current version.

Also (or maybe instead), is there a way to convert Calibre metadata to Sigil metadata. This is what I'm trying to do. I'll enter it by hand if necessary, but prefer not. I'm taking multi-volume epubs (e.g. 25 Favorite Novels) and splitting them for easier access and reading.

Thanks for any ideas, even those really obvious ones, because I am pretty lost here.
